Chapter 528: Mini Baby Monster [Ko-Fi Bonus Chapter]
Anthony could be seen seated in a room within his mother’s castle. He was busy browsing through the vast library of books she had gathered over the years.
Anthony knew from the very onset that the Second Supre Monarch would attack him. He understood clearly that people at that level carried sky-high pride.
How could an Ecliptic-ranked human injure a Supre Monarch and go scot-free?
But he knew that Supres were beings of their own caliber. Although he could use Absolute Stasis to halt ti and escape into his Mirror Dinsion, he still needed his thoughts to activate the ability.
And Supre Monarchs could move faster than he could think, even with his Thought Acceleration skill.
But with his parents and grandfather there, he had every confidence that he could return safely. Besides, even if he died, his Infinite Regeneration could literally bring him back, even from nothing but scattered particles.
He also knew that his parents wouldn’t take him being attacked lightly. He had been waiting for hours already, confident that they would be fighting the Second Supre Monarch who had dared to lay hands on him.
As he moved through various books in the library, a portal suddenly manifested beside him, and through it, his mother stepped through. Upon seeing her son, her cold expression instantly vanished, replaced by a warm smile.
Behind her, Collins and her husband, Michael, stepped out of the portal as it closed behind them.
"Are you alright?"
Mitchelle asked as she pulled Anthony into a warm and tight hug.
"I’m fine, Mom. Didn’t you ask
this after you saved ? And even before you left?"
Anthony replied with a smile as he pulled away gently.
"How is my baby monster doing? It’s been years!"
Michael said cheerfully as he ruffled Anthony’s hair.
"Dad, I’m grown. I’m almost twenty now. I can’t be called ’baby monster’ anymore. Besides, it’s only been a little over a year since we last saw each other, not years."
Anthony replied with a calm smile.
"You did good, grandchild."
Collins said as he patted Anthony’s shoulder. He wasn’t much of a speaker, but Anthony could feel the love the man had for him regardless.
"Thanks, Grampa,"
Anthony said sincerely.
"But who could’ve imagined that my son would be able to injure a Supre Monarch? Hahahaha!"
Michael laughed heartily as he suddenly rembered the Second Supre losing an entire arm.
"Hmph. He’s not your son. He’s my son."
Mitchelle said with a proud snort as she pulled Anthony closer into her arms.
"Why don’t you show us how you were able to injure a Supre?"
Michael asked eagerly, his eyes gleaming. He genuinely wanted to know since none of them had felt or seen anything during the event.
"It’s basically a ti-stopping ability. But it doesn’t just freeze ti, it freezes reality itself. That’s why you didn’t see or feel anything."
Anthony explained with a calm tone.
"Hmmm... But I didn’t feel any mana or any sort of energy before or even after it happened."
Mitchelle said, confused. Collins nodded his head in agreent.
"It doesn’t use any form of energy, Mom."
Anthony stated simply.
At this point, Anthony’s parents were already numb to the various abilities that kept springing up from their son every single ti. It was as though he broke every rule known to magic and battle.
"But that was just freezing ti. The katana on your waist wouldn’t even be able to scratch the skin of a Supre Monarch, let alone slice off an entire arm."
Michael said as his gaze shifted toward the katana resting on Anthony’s waist.
Anthony raised his hand, and blue divine flas appeared above his open palm.
He started explaining how the flas belonged to Romulus, whom he had summoned to fight alongside him during the Starborn Tournant against the Spirit King. But now, he could use the flas independently, without Romulus.
The family moved to a sitting area and spent ti together, talking about various things. Anthony shared details about his training and experiences in the military. Mitchelle, in turn, boasted about having a daughter-in-law soon.
As for Michael? He was already asking for a mini baby monster, claiming that since he hadn’t gotten the chance to train Anthony, he would make sure to train his grandchild.
Anthony had to remind him that, as humans, they awakened into specific classes. It wasn’t as simple as just doing whatever they wanted, like other races could. If his grandchild awakened as a mage, then Michael would be helpless to train them in swordsmanship.
But Michael simply boasted that he knew his genes well, and that his grandchild would definitely be a swordsman.
The hours passed, and eventually, the next day arrived. Their family ti was warm and filled with joy. The only one missing from the equation was the Saintess of the World.
By morning, Collins and Michael inford Anthony that they had to leave in order to prepare things at their respective military bases before the eting with the First Supre Monarch that afternoon.
Mitchelle also explained that she too would have to leave, and that she might not be returning anyti soon, as they were preparing to counterattack the demons.
She inford Anthony about the fall of a Supre Monarch. But Anthony already knew about it. He had guessed the mont he saw only eight Supre Monarchs instead of nine.
Anthony had deduced that the missing Supre was likely the one stationed at Military Base Alpha-6, whom he hadn’t seen since the base fell entirely.
He inford Mitchelle of the favor he wanted from the military, which was simply to remain in a team with his current teammates, including Clent and Spectre, since they were strong enough, while also adding his girlfriend to the team.
This basically ant that whatever rank he was promoted to, the entire team would be promoted alongside him, functioning as a complete and cohesive unit.
"Since you’ll be leaving this afternoon and won’t return anyti soon, why don’t I spar with Raelith before you go? You could officiate the katanamanship duel."
Anthony said as he suddenly rembered the scheduled spar. He didn’t want to do it later when he could be spending ti with his girlfriend.
"That’s true. I forgot about that. Since there are a few hours remaining before midday, the spar can happen now, and I’ll be able to watch."
Mitchelle nodded in agreent and decided to call Warlord Raelith.
